The vitality surged.
The formation expert from the mercenary group was the first to be shocked. Not just from the pain though.
He was shocked about how the gambler team managed to surge the vitality, when he couldn't detect any formations in the vicinity.
And the counter for that was extremely simple. Even though Sam could come up with concealing formations that could work against the third grade level people, he didn't have much time or patience to make them.
So, he opted for a different but most straightforward method to tackle this.
He just laid down formations around the area, circling it completely and made the vitality disperse out of them.
Even though there was a lot of wastage, a ton of vitality was pushed towards the mercenary group and their bodies absorbed it. Their curses acted up and started eating at their wounds. Sam immediately recalled the bird puppets.
They were just there to serve as a distraction and they did their job.
